‘Too Old to Rock‘ is serious music which I intended to celebrate rock music in all its various forms be it heavy, latin, punk, blues, country or whatever you can think of. I most likely missed a few along the way, but I hope you enjoy this album anyway.
- Glad You’re Gone
You can always rely on my ex-wife to provide inspiration for a title like this!
- Living on the Road
What was it really like trying to build a following while living in a Transit van – and do we miss it?

Bugger me what a disapointment. Was expecting total crap so plugged me cans in ready to sneer and instead found a lot to like. Hate that. Loved the riffs in See The Light. And any divorced gent has to resonate with Glad You’re Gone.
Speak as exmanager of a couple of bands whist yet a lad at Eton. Screwed the talent comprehensively and they never saw a bean of box office but that’s the muso biz. Great days.
Newport Pagnell, Watford Gap, Scotch Corner – early mornings on the road back from gigs. Smell of vomit in the back of the van. Stoned groupies and shared needles. Remember the drummer handing round exlax wrapped in cooking foil thinking he’d bought cannabis brownies. That night we found out why recreational drugs were known as shit. Then getting pulled over by Old Bill. Whip round to pay them orf. Great days.
Your music brings it all back.
Rock on Chas.
